Assignment
Answer /discuss the following 5 questions. Your answers should be 2-3 sentences long with detailed explanations. Also solve the following 4 problems and include detailed formulations, calculations and explanations.
Questions:
1) What doping means in a semiconductor?
2) What are the majority carriers in an n-type semiconductor and why?
3) Are there any "Holes" in conductor materials? Why not?
4) How do you forward-bias a diode?
5) How do you reverse-bias a diode?
Problems:
1) Determine the voltage across each diode assuming an ideal diode.
